This weekend we had an ice cream themed party for my newly two year-old little girl. It was nothing huge and fancy, but I had a few things that I wanted to share. First up, the piñata. I LOVED the way it turned out, and was sad to see it brutally destroyed by the little kiddos.
I got my inspiration here, At Second Street, she threw a Minnie themed party and made a Minnie piñata. I used her instructions, but with a different shape. My husband was a little skeptical about not making a paper mache piñata, but it worked out great and was mess free.
So I figure, no mess, free cardboard I had on hand, crepe paper from the Dollar Tree, and ta da, a cute CHEAP pinata.
Filled with candy, ready to be closed up. Note: DO NOT for get to leave a hole to put the candy in! Major oops.
Finished product, ready to be beat and busted open.
And if I was in this picture, you could see me shedding a small tear for my darling piñata.
That looks great! My dad always made my pinatas when I was younger and it's such a sweet memory. :) Though your little one is only two, I'm sure she'll be very impressed with your handiwork in the future.
